    Posted 2 days ago

    Hi all,

    Have any of you worked with a trainer who specializes in teaching professionals how to create accessible PDFs and Word documents? We're working on a PDF remediation strategy, and a key component of that will hopefully be making it so that future documents we create are accessible from the get-go. 

    We have a lot of people on our staff with content creation responsibilities, and they have a pretty wide range of technical skill and comfort levels. The ideal would be to have someone who could train everyone in the basics, while our core content creators also learn more advanced skills.

    I'm also open to online course recommendations (for myself, if nothing else!), if there are any you've taken and particularly enjoyed.

    Hi there -- We've used Shawn Jordison and his company The Accessibility Guy to train our headquarter staff and component staff. We've received a lot of positive feedback. You can learn more about his services here: Home - The Accessibility Guy
